Hello!
I'm proud to be part of the education team at Claireville Conservation Area. Our camps are all about the experience of being immersed in nature - losing track of time while you turn over rocks looking for salamanders, singing songs around a campfire, building forts in the forest, making art with nature - I hope your child will join us at Claireville for a summer of incredible memories and essential life experiences.
Our camps are led by dedicated and experienced outdoor education specialists and camp counsellors, who are committed to creating a safe and welcoming environment for your child. All staff have training in child development, anti-bullying, first aid, and outdoor recreation safety. Claireville Summer Nature Day Camps are all about discovery, nature-connection and developing self-confidence.
Whether your child is a first-time camper or a seasoned outdoor explorer, Claireville's Summer Day Camps will make this summer special.
Yours in the Outdoors,
Jasmine Green, OCT
